I run Windows XP and while checking out some dates on the Windows calender I accidentally hit OK (instead of cancel) while I was looking at the March 2008 calender. This screwed up my computer date. I caught my error very quickly and returned the calender to the correct date. However, now when I look at the WCG stats on my computer the chart shows Mar 8, 2008 at the bottom of the chart. I tried deleting WCG and reinstalling but this had no effect on the screwed up date. What can I do to fix this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Goto the BOINC folder, and look for files like "statictics_......xml" Open the WCG one. You will see a lot of entries with <day>...</day> as part of them.
----------------------------------------Likely It is the very las entry that needs to be deleted. But it will be the entry with the highest value in the <day> line. Delete entire section with <daily_statistics>....</daily_statistics>. Likely you would want to backup the file before editing it. |

Likely you would want to exit BOINC while editing anything. Not sure, but if running thru the next day, the local statistics date would probably have gotten fixed automatically.

I have deleted the stray data from the statistics file (after making a copy of the file and shutting down WCG) and everything looks good now. Thanks for the help!
